← lab · AUC 0.609 (real signal) · ran 7/5/2026
What this is: Asks which pre-match factors drive one specific outcome, using a walk-forward model and permutation importance.

Reading the columnswhat each number actually means
| AUC | predictability: 0.50 = coin flip, ~0.70 = ceiling for sports |
| Importance | how much the model leans on this factor (permutation importance) |
| Direction | sign of the raw correlation with the outcome |
| Survives all eras | effect points the same way in every historical era |
